My idea was indeed to write the HTML to a temporary file, and print it using
EXT.dll. I only don't understand what's the 'pain' here, it's as easy as
this:
function tableEncode htmlCode
return "<TABLE BORDER=0><TR><TD>" &
replaceText(replaceText(htmlCode,"<P>","</TD></TR><TR><TD>"),"	","</TD><T
D>") & "</TD></TR></TABLE>"
end tableEncode

Well, actually I don't. I'm going to use this all to print numerous reports
which all should have approximately the same layout, so...
I still have a question: when printing a temporary HTML file with EXT.dll, I
find all kinds of unwanted headers and footers (file path, print date and
'Page x of y' instead of 'Pagina x van y' (Dutch)).
Being able to set these headers and footers in a way (by setting a .inf
files or a registry entry) would be optimal, but being able to disable
headers and footers would be also nice.
Thanks to everyone who responded and hoping for a final reply,
Sjoerd
